I certainly will once it can move under its own power again! The 216 is locked up from sitting, zero brakes, dry rotted tires, etc...... Once all those issues are addressed he can certainly see the road again. One of the most solid originals I've ever seen.

On the brakes, don't try to save anything. Put a new master, wheel cylinders all the brake lines and hoses, it's so damn easy it's crazy to replace everything, just do it.
